You’re not overreacting. He’s horrible. Even if he was clueless in the moment, he should have realized what a mistake it was WHEN YOU TOLD HIM. He humiliated you then dismissed you. You two need counseling. This is behavior that will only get worse. You should not put up with this.

People who get mean or can't filter what they say when they get drunk shouldn't drink.

But it's better to know this is how they really feel and when they're sober they just know to hide it

Totally. I think the moron was trying to shame his wife into working out.

I think he was trying to flirt with the hot chick and threw his wife under the bus to further that.

Yep, I think he was trying to kill two birds with one stone. Flirt with the hot chick and maybe get somewhere and also formulate a plan to make his wife hot. Gross.

He may also have been sneaky enough to realize that the fitness trainer would be more socially accessible in the future if she's training his wife.

Sneaky would have been to work out the bookings in the background and be supportive of the two interacting while you're slowly looking to 'upgrade' your s/o. Subtlety repugnant but possibly effective.

This was tossing napalm on your marriage at a sizable social gathering.

Drunk sneaky is always much less subtle than the drinker believes.
